Use Void as the basis. Most of the tools you’ll need are in the repo (add the non-free repo as well), the ones that aren’t, are in xbps-src and you compile from source (it’s only a few commands after you clone the repo).
Regarding samba, holler, I’ll share what I use. Also, don’t forget to install nss-mdns for discoverability. Also holler if you need help getting the services to autostart on boot up.
